fun story time w/ Victoria

This is a story about the one who literally got away after a visit to a university in my home state. 

I live in the midwest region of the US, and I was originally planning on going to school out west but then I looked at how much debt I would have and thought nawww.

So I set up visits for two of the three state schools in my home state (the third was too small and I don’t like the area as is, so I didn’t bother looking into it). I visited the first one, which is a Big Ten school, with my dad and loved it. Then the next week we went to the other one, and I had a friend of mine with me and my dad.

At that school there were only 3 kids in the session for my general major of interest; another girl and a guy. She wanted to do public relations, while he wanted to do sports broadcasting/reporting (I found it funny that the name of the county/school district he lived in was the name of my town even though we lived in different parts of the state). He seemed really sweet, as he was nice and had a sister who was disabled and he was very helpful with his family making things easier for her. Plus he was super cute and hella fine. I knew his name at that point, but I’ve forgotten now.

After that we went to the schools book store and I got a poster and a book (Ed Sheeran and Game of Thrones). He and his family were also there.

So apparently when myself and my friend were looking at books and posters he approached my dad and they talked. He wanted to know if I’d be going to this school, as he was since both his parents did. My dad said probably not, since we liked the other one a bit more. I can’t recall what else my dad said about him and what they talked about.

Apparently he also kept staring in the direction of my friend and myself. I thought he could have been just staring at my friend, but my dad said no, that he was way more interested in me when they talked and he could tell by how his gaze apparently followed my movements. 

So we checked out, me and him sort of made eye contact once again, and then we left. 

I was kind of sad I’d probably never see him again, as I’d basically made up my mind before that visit was over that I’d be going to the other school. It would have been nice to at least get his name down and maybe add him online or something, but sometimes it just ends up being like ships in the night. 

I’ve not had a guy actually show interest in me since that day about ten months ago, nor with a guy as cute as he was. But things just happen sometimes, and you can’t really control that. Plus it would be stupid to go to one school over another just for a guy, no matter how attractive his face is.

Anyways, that is my story of the one who got away.

STORY TIME!

So, I work for a radio station and back during football season we were covering a game at my school which was against one of our biggest rivals. This was my first time working on location, since I always work back at the studio covering tech. Long story short our school beat theirs hard, even though we were expected to lose. After the game my boss told me to go get the other team's coach for the post-game interview. So, I go down to the field and find the coach. It's only him, his assistant coach, and two of his key players (two guys with huge muscles and at least 6'4 each). I'm at least twenty feet away, but I can hear him chewing major ass as I approach so I just stop and wait. His assistant coach turns around to leave the field, sees me, and then apologizes for the coach. I just sort of weakly smile and then wait another three minutes until the coach finishes telling those boys off (who both noticed me and both seemed like little puppies with tails between their legs). The coach turns around, walks up to me just as jolly as can be and apologizes for making me wait. I just sort of weakly smile again and remind him of the interview while the boys walk past, and he says something about how he just had to take care of some business back there. I point him in the right direction then go get the station banner from the other side of the field. What makes this even worse, however, is that the entire time I was wearing the jersey of a player on my (the home) team. And it doesn't end there. I have to go into the school to return a pitch pipe (I sang the anthem that night too), and put the guys jersey back in his locker. In order to do so, I had to walk past the girl's locker room (which the opposing football team uses for games) just when a bunch of the players were coming out. (I could have cut through the gym and avoided them, but it was pitch black dark and I was scared I'd trip and hurt myself.) Not only did they stink, but they stared at me the entire way down the hall. (Which was also totally dark at the end and made me scared one would follow me.) I go the the senior hall, put the guys jersey back in his locker, and go a different/shorter way to reach the parking lot. Which happens to go by the home (my) team (it was that or go back by the strangers, and no thanks). It was less embarrassing walking by them, but I still had to walk over sweaty legs an past stinky bodies and bags and equipment to reach the parking lot. I haven't worked on site since.
